Lyrics for Song: Afraid
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - The Neighbourhood
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
Make that money, fake that dummy, ache my tummy
On the fence, all the time
Paint junk honey, face so sunny, ain't that funny
All my friends always lie to me
I know they're thinking,
You're too mean, I don't like you, fuck you anyway
You make me wanna scream at the top of my lungs
It hurts but I won't fight you
You suck anyway
You make me wanna die, right when I,
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might end up being me
Keep on dreaming, don't stop breathing, fight those demons
Sell your soul, not your whole self
If they see it when you're sleeping, make them leave it
And I can't even see if it's all there anymore so,
You're too mean, I don't like you, fuck you anyway
You make me wanna scream at the top of my lungs
It hurts but I won't fight you
You suck anyway
You make me wanna die, right when I,
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might end up being me
Being me can only mean
Feeling scared to breathe
If you leave me then I'll be afraid of everything
That makes me anxious, keeps me patience, calms me down
Lets me face this, let me sleep, and when I wake up
Let me breathe
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might take my place
When I wake up I'm afraid, somebody else might end up being me

Afraid - The Neighbourhood
Released as a standalone single, "Afraid" by The Neighbourhood stands as a defining track of the mid-2010s indie-pop revival. The song features the band's signature blend of atmospheric production and introspective lyrics, delivered by lead vocalist Alex G. It serves as a thematic counterpart to their earlier hit "Sweater Weather," exploring similar themes of anxiety and social observation while pushing the sonic boundaries of the genre. The recording showcases the group's ability to create immersive soundscapes that prioritize mood and texture over traditional song structures. As a key component of their discography, the track has become an enduring staple in the indie rock canon, influencing a generation of artists who emulate its melancholic yet polished aesthetic. |
